Thanks man . The five se and m9 se would be in that range right? Both have tweak 6 highback. Would the nx2se's baseplate be too stiff on a soft board? I ve seen flow verves with nx2s bindings on their team riders boards, but they're pros so it is a very different situation

The Five SE and M9 will be very fun and are a good mix of flex and support for a more flexible board. The NX2 SE is very fun as well but it does have a stiffer base. It wil offer great response and you do not need to be advanced to enjoy that.
